Enable Network Discovery and File and Printer Sharing

[Sand Man]

I'm building an unattended install of Windows 7 Pro. How can I enable Network Discovery and File and Printer Sharing? Whenever I enable them then sysprep the install, the settings are never saved. Thanks!

If you use an answer file for sysprep you can try these ideas.

1. Use RouterDiscoveryEnabled in the Specialize Pass.

2. As far as File and Printer Sharing, I believe this is tied to the network location. You can try setting a Work or Home option for NetworkLocation in the oobeSystem pass.

I ended up putting a vbs file in the user's programs startup folder that will enable it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947709
